A Coenzyme Q10 formula for cats and dogs to support cardiovascular and periodontal health.

CoenzymeQ10 is found in the mitochondria, the chemical factories of all cells where energy is made. Hundreds of mitochondria are present in each cell and are most highly concentrated in the periodontal tissue, heart, and liver. CoQ10 enhances the formation of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate), the basic energy molecule used by every cell.

CoQ10 is found in the highest concentration in "high energy" organs such as the brain, heart, muscles, liver, kidneys and pancreas. It is a powerful antioxidant and immune enhancer.

CoQ10 can support the cellular energy necessary for heart health (ailing hearts are often deficient in CoQ10) and helps carbohydrate metabolism support blood sugar balance, and gum health (deficiencies of CoQ10 have been linked to poor gum health).

I am giving Coenzyme Q10 to my older dog who has been diagnosed with early stage kidney disease. I have read numerous articles that claim coenzyme Q10 can slow the progress of kidney disease and in some instances improve the creatinine and BUN levels. My dog has not been taking it long enough to know if it has helped her kidney but it can't hurt and in addition scientific studies have shown that coenzyme Q10 helps keep the cardiovascular system healthy in dogs. After much research I chose the Vetri Science brand because it is reasonable priced, comes in a dosage form that is appropriate for my dog's weight and does not contain any other ingredients or fillers. My dog is a medium size dog and takes the 30 mg capsule twice a day. The capsule is small enough that I can hide it in her dog food.

I've only given this supplement to my dog for 1 1/2 days, following the dosage given for her weight. I gave her nothing else different than usual, and nothing in her diet (home-cooked, organic) has changed. For the first time in more than two years, she has diarrhea (for hours). It must be the CoQ-10, perhaps the inactive ingredients (malto-dextrin and cellulose). I just know I won't be giving her any more!

Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend

Merchant response: We suggest calling Vetri Science to report your adverse event and get more information on it!

my vet has prescribed coq10 for my elderly cats for yrs. it helps with arthritis type pain. she also feels it helps coat organs such as bladder to make them smooth...prevents fissures where infection can hide. must work becuz my 3 cats who passed were 20,17,and 18. my last gal of the original 4 is now nearly 18 and looks and acts yrs younger. i would not be without it!

I was advised by a neurologist to give my cat CoQ10 to slow the progression of his lou gehrig's disease. It has greatly extended his life! Most cats diagnosed with this illness live a few months up to a year. My cat has been doing better than estimated and has been taking the pills for over two years.

When giving him the whole pill he would have some side-effects (shivering), but when given 2/3rds of the pill (I'd empty some of the powder out) we would see symptom reduction for his lou gehrig's disease. I wish the pills came in a smaller size, but overall I'm really grateful that this product exists and is safe for pets!

My dog is 15yrs old, pants all the time and seemed to be bloated and his teeth are not great.. I assumed with bad teeth can cause the ingestion of bacteria which could damage his organs, mostly his heart, so I started his on fish oil,Co-Q10,brewers yeast(for B-vitamins)and vit. E. After 2 months I have seem much change, panting is less and the bloating is gone. Supplements have to be more than just one, but I think the co-Q10 has been very essential to his improvement. my dog is 70lbs he get 2(Q10) pills every other day (plus PB flavored dog toothpaste).

I needed a CoQ10 capsule for a 17-month cat with a slight heart murmur. This is the the best quality CoQ10 for the price that I could find. I am hoping it is enough to strengthen his heart. The capsules are a nice size and good consistency.

Several years back Big Louie (kitty) repeatedly suffered from urinary tract blockage. His last episode with it was so bad, he was on the verge of blood poisoning (I had NO idea). Our vet at that time definitely didn't give me hope for Louie's future. I didn't like her prognosis so I searched and found another vet, Katherine Van Winkle (she's amazing). She started Louie on an antibiotic and CoQ10. Although the antibiotic ended after 10-days, I never stopped administering the CoQ10 and Big Louie has NEVER had another blockage. I also put one of my other man-cats w/a history of blockage on CoQ10; I've never had to take him back to his vet. I also take CoQ10 and recommend it for all living creatures; fur-covered or not.

I have a small 15 year old dog with heart disease, and this product was recommended by our vet. I like the fact that the CoQ10 is a natural product and very easy to administer. I will continue daily use.
